THE NEW APACHE OUTBREAK.

The news from Arizona concerning the new
Apache outbreak Is not exactly reassurng.
though it is always possible that the reports
NAV be exaggerated, and generally speaking
rather probable than otherwise. The numbers
of the hostile Indians have been mounting
steadily in the dispatches, though IL does not
appear that any white man has had an oppor-
unity to count them. AT first 1t was said
,borc wore seventeen Of them. Next they
numbered thirty. Then their number sudden
" swelled TO hundred, with possible extra
three hundred generously thrown in by an
Indian prophet Of bloodthirs'y procllyltcs and
elastic imagination. OF course, when We get
TO the formidable number of four hundred
Apache bucks on the waIpath, all armed with
the latest improvement IN Winchestcrs and
supnhed with abundance OF ammunition,
nothing less than an Indian war VIII describe
Tho situation. So II is settled, among the
l;relv neoplo who send the soul stirring dis
matches andwho keep doubling up the numbers
Of the hostilcs, that We are 30 have an Indian
war. and wo NAV prepare ourselves accordingly.
So far the Apaches do not appear to have
taken many scalps, but they have the whole
simmer before them Captain Lawton and
his men. who are supposed to be on their track
and not very far behind them, do not seem
TO have learned what achievements the nos
tiles have received, and it is just possible the
bostiles are themselves equally ignorant oil the
matter Somebody at Tucson, however, gen-
orally knows a good deal more about what IS
going on at the front than the troops and the
Indians together, and that is comfortable
reflection, because it assures us that there never
.sll he dearth of Indian news, even il it I'm,
70 he manufactured out Of whole cloth.
Strictly speaking perhaps, it is not altogether
safe to believe more than that some Apachcs
have got away from the reservation, and that
some troops are after them. Nothing has been
heard from army headquarters or from the
post at San Carlos jIstifylng tho statement
that the affair means more than sort OF
guerilla outbreak. No doubt that IS bad
enough. and must involve danger and probably
some loss Of life among settlers, and
fatigung and protracted campaign Tor INC
troops. with little or no recognition OF the
energy and perseverance required OF them
But we need not lament in advance over the
misfortune of another Indian war, and 1t may
be that the troops will be able to give good
account Of the hostilcs in the Santa Margherta
Mountains sooner than was expected

MUSIC.

Jacquette," the new musical comedy Introduced By
Mr.. McCaui to the public at Wallacks Theatre last
night is comic opera rather than an operetta Tho

music throughout betrays striving for the higher

BICYCLES AND THE PARKS.

The Bicycle bill on which Governor Hin will
give hearing this afternoon should not fail to
receive favorable cOnsdt at ion at his hands 1t
is in no sense special legislation. and the objection
made TO II that whccnicn should not co Albany 10
get the right to use the Central Puk drives is
without weight. The bill does not apply to Central
Park alona but 10 every park in the State. II
simply provides that bicycles. tricycles and all
other vehicles propelled by manumotiye or pedo-
motive power are hereby declared TO be carriages,
and all persons riding the same shall be entitled
TO the same rights and subject TO the same re-
strictions in the use thereof are prescribed in
the cases Of persons using carriages drawn by
horses. This is plain commonscnse. and the en-
acting Of ii into law Is simply bringing home To
those having authority that they have morc
right TO bar out wheelmen than tho have TO forbid
the use Of public drives TO other kinds of vehicles
used for pleasure.
The act which wheelmen wal urge tie Governor
TO SIN, however. expressly provides that proper
regulations and ordinances may be passed and en-
forced in regard 10 spcol. lamps, bells, etc, and
IL can readily be seen that the use of certain
drive, or parts OF drives al certain hours or on
certain occasions will not be objected to by the
bicycling fraternity. For their own safety they
would be disposed not 10 Insist upon their rights
TOO rigidly. What they wish made plain. and
what this law makes plain. Is that they have rights
and that no commissioners can exclude them thfe-
from. Little is heard nowadays about horses
being frightened by Tho silent rolling wheels but
no doubt this ancient objection will be brought 10
tiovernor Hills attention to-day Horses are
frightened by innumefable things but that is no
reason why these things should be done away with

AN ISSUE ETADED.

Certain Democratic journals seem to think
that they can dispose of the Behring Sea ques
ton by raising hue and cry about trading
monopolies. They accuse Professor Henry
w Elliott. whose letters on this subject in
our columns have attracted general attention
from the American press, Of writing in the
interests of the Alaska Commercial Company
1t is question, they assert, of an Inscriptions
monopoly against the maritime rights of the
world. This is the easiest possible way Of
avoiding the real issues of the case.
The Alaska Commercial Companys franchise
has nothing to do with the question of Amer-
can jurisdiction acquired by treaty and sane
sioned by Congressional legislation. II enjoys
for a term of years certain privileges, and
paws for them. Indeed, If we are correctly
Informed, it pays enough to meet the interest
ON the Governments original invcstmcnt-the
purchase money If 1t docs not pay what the
privileges are worth it should be forced to
do so when it's contracts expire. But what
has this got to do with the question of Amor
can jurisdiction Absolutely nothing. Tho
treaty of cession defined pelagic boundary
in Behring Sea between Russia and the United
States On one side Of that line Russia re-
tanned jurisdiction. On the other or eastern
side it conferred jurisdiction upon TIE United
States. That jurisdiction was recognized when
the Senate ratified tho treaty, and until Pres
ident Clcveland's Administration came into
power the rights then acquired were jealousy
guarded by the United States Government.
Why should the claim to exclusive jurisdiction
over one-half of land-locked sea DO re-
nounced That is the question at issue, and
vapid defamation about graspng monopoles
Is wide of the mark
Mr.. Frederick w. Stewards two questions
which ho asked in The TRIBUNE's columns
have been persistenty evaded by apologists
Of the State Department Did Great Britain
claim or receive from Russia prior to the pur-
chase of Alaska any such concession of rights
in Behring Sea as was actually acquired by the
